Hussam Ayloush has been the Executive Director of CAIR-Los Angeles since 1998 and CEO of CAIR-California. He runs the largest CAIR chapter in the country, with 775 staff across five California offices. He gave this speech publicly, at a CAIR fundraiser, and his plan is worth hearing in full.
His stated objective:
“𝘞𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘣𝘶𝘪𝘭𝘥 𝘢 𝘯𝘦𝘵𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬 𝘰𝘧 𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘴 𝘢𝘵 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘮𝘢𝘴𝘫𝘪𝘥, 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘮𝘰𝘴𝘲𝘶𝘦, 𝘵𝘰 𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘨𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘔𝘶𝘴𝘭𝘪𝘮, 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘨𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘰𝘯 𝘪𝘴 𝘳𝘦𝘨𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘷𝘰𝘵𝘦. 𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘢𝘭 𝘰𝘧𝘧𝘪𝘤𝘪𝘢𝘭 𝘢𝘵 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘭𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘭 𝘦𝘯𝘨𝘢𝘨𝘦𝘴 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘔𝘶𝘴𝘭𝘪𝘮 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘶𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘺. 𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘈𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘔𝘶𝘴𝘭𝘪𝘮𝘴 𝘳𝘶𝘯 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘰𝘧𝘧𝘪𝘤𝘦.”
The strategic endgame, also in his own words:
“𝘞𝘦 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘦 𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘊𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘯𝘪𝘢 𝘔𝘶𝘴𝘭𝘪𝘮𝘴, 𝘴𝘰 𝘸𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘴𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘺—𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘸𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘴𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘦 𝘊𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘯𝘪𝘢.”
And the theological framing layered on top of the political machinery:
“𝘞𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘈𝘭𝘭𝘢𝘩 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘮𝘪𝘴𝘦𝘴, 𝘪𝘵’𝘴 𝘨𝘶𝘢𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘦𝘥 100%. 𝘚𝘰 𝘈𝘭𝘭𝘢𝘩 𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘢𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨, 𝘐’𝘮 𝘨𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘰 𝘨𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘷𝘪𝘤𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘺. 𝘜𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘭 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦’𝘴 𝘢 𝘤𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘮𝘢𝘴𝘴, 𝘈𝘭𝘭𝘢𝘩 𝘪𝘴 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘩𝘰𝘭𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘩𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘴 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘮𝘪𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘶𝘴—𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘸𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦𝘯’𝘵 𝘧𝘶𝘭𝘧𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘥 𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘥𝘦𝘢𝘭.”
What Ayloush is building: the Muslim Community Action Network (MCAM) to 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐬 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐳𝐞𝐫𝐬 at every mosque, coordinating candidate forums and legislative advocacy statewide. A formal endowment—a 𝘸𝘢𝘲𝘧—to permanently fund CAIR-California for future generations. New state and local government grants layered on top of the existing taxpayer-funded infrastructure.
That taxpayer-funded infrastructure is now under congressional scrutiny. Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) sent a formal letter to HHS Secretary RFK Jr. in April 2026, 𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐇𝐇𝐒 𝐬𝐮𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐟𝐞𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐟𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐂𝐀𝐈𝐑 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐥𝐚𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐡 𝐝𝐞𝐛𝐚𝐫𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬, citing CAIR’s designation as an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation case—the largest H∗m∗s-financing prosecution in U.S. history. Roy’s review identified more than $15 million in federal sub-grants flowing through the California Department of Social Services to CAIR-California for Afghan resettlement work, including $7.2 million potentially redirected in violation of grant terms.
